It was my husband's 40th birthday on Thursday, so this weekend we celebrated in style by going to see Blood Brothers at the Birmingham Hippodrome.

Wow, what a show! I knew very little about it before going to see it, but I was blown away by it. The acting, the singing, the emotion of it was just outstanding! I've seen lots of shows (both in the West End and here in Birmingham), but Blood Brothers is right up there with the best of them...if not the best. I can't recommend it highly enough! It finished its run in Birmingham last night, but do go and see it if you ever get the chance. You won't regret it! It's funny, sad, heartwarming and in the end heartbreaking, but you don't feel weighed down by misery like you can with some shows. Blood Brothers had us laughing most of the way through, while leaving us heartbroken at the end. The actor who played Mickey was amazing! He could have you laughing one minute and then crying the next. Definitely a performance to remember!

I want to experience it all over again. *sigh*

*Twilight Zone music* I was just recommending Blood Brothers to Bendy as a musical she just has to see !
I've seen it three times , and would still go see it again and again despite crying like a baby each time *g*

My musical theatre muse is dying of envy but the other parts are happy you had such a wonderful time. Ohhh and spiffy layout.

It's so good to hear from you, Hannah! Can you believe it's already been almost a year since Words and Music? Time goes by so quickly! *hugs*

Tell me about it!! If you'd have told me that weekend all the things that would happen to me in the coming year I would never have believed you.

Wonder if James will ever come back to the UK again??
